Fable is a literary genre: a succinct fictional story, in prose or verse, that features animals, mythical creatures, plants, inanimate objects, or forces of nature that are anthropomorphized (given human qualities, such as verbal communication) and that illustrates or leads to an interpretation of a moral lesson (a "moral"), which may at the end be added explicitly as a pithy maxim.
A fable differs from a parable in that the latter excludes animals, plants, inanimate objects, and forces of nature as actors that assume speech or other powers of humankind.
Usage has not always been so clearly distinguished. In the King James Version of the New Testament, "μῦθος" ("mythos") was rendered by the translators as "fable" in the First Epistle to Timothy, the Second Epistle to Timothy, the Epistle to Titus and the First Epistle of Peter.
A person who writes fables is a fabulist.
The fable is one of the most enduring forms of folk literature, spread abroad, modern researchers agree, less by literary anthologies than by oral transmission. Fables can be found in the literature of almost every country.

Plot: Stopping Before We Go is a modern day story of a series of strangers who interact while waiting for their delayed bus. While at first the three independent couplings may seem like they wouldn't talk with one another, something sparks a conversation between all of them and they find themselves immersed in discussions that help guide a future thought or decision in their life. It's a story about how a complete stranger can sometimes be the greatest friend and advice giver at a moment in time when our lives may unknowingly need it the most and how that moment can be completely unexpected, yet remembered forever.

Un sorriso di pi?
O una lacrima in pi?
Mentre il tempo vola
Prima il bene e poi il male
Poi lo zucchero e il sale
Seccano la gola.
Carnevale
E comincia cosi la mia recita
Salto fuori di questa mia scatola
E la mia faccia ride gi?.
Carnevale
Baster? che io suoni un'armonica
Per riempire ogni cosa di musica
E tutto quando passer?.
Oggi? festa se vuoi per consolarci
E festa se vuoi per aiutarci a cambiare la realt?.
Un giorno di pi?
E anche un giorno di meno
Perch? il tempo vola
Il silenzio fa male
Ma anche troppe parole
Seccano la gola.
Carnevale
Se la vita mi sembra un po' stupida
Tolgo un asso da questa mia manica
E tutto quanto cambier?.
Carnevale
Se ogni giorno mi sembra pi? inutile
Ballo fino a stancarmi anche l'anima
Che poi domani si vedr?.
Oggi? festa se vuoi per consolarci
? festa se vuoi per aiutarci a cambiare la realt?.
Carnevale
Per ognuno di noi c'? una maschera
Se nasconde un sorriso o una lacrima
Io non lo dico ma lo so
